A number of drivers were nabbed by Letterkenny Gardaí yesterday for having non-conforming registration plates/
Such non-conforming Irish registration plates include those that have custom or non-standard fonts, incorrect sizes, colours or spacing, no EU flag or “IRL” identifier and those that are designed to defeat Garda ANPR systems.
After the issuing of a number of fixed charge penalty notices to drivers yesterday, Letterkenny Gardaí are reminding the public that each non-regulation, missing, or obscured plate can result in a €60 fine per plate.
They are also reminding motorists that all registration plates must meet Irish format and visibility standards.
